The US Department of Commerce (USDOC) recently concluded its fourth expedited sunset review on imports of carbon and certain alloy steel wire rods from Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Moldova, and Trinidad and Tobago. The USDOC determined that terminating existing anti-dumping (AD) orders would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping.

Official findings predict substantial dumping margins if the measures end. Estimated weighted-average margins reach as high as 369.10% for Moldova and 94.73% for Brazil. Other projected rates include 20.11% for Mexico, 11.35% for Trinidad and Tobago, and 4.05% for Indonesia.
